If the NSA has a phone number of a possible terrorist I would expect them to cross-reference numbers to see who they are calling and why.

I would to. By getting a subpeona. Not by getting every call made by everyone covered by large telecomes.

I would even favor an expedited process with a lower threshhold of probable cause. But there has to be some process and it has to be a rifle, not a shotgun.

Isn't this called the Patriot Act?
